Do I have to pay sales tax?
If an item is subject to sales tax in the state or province to which the order is shipped, tax is generally calculated on the total selling price of each individual item. In accordance with state, provincial and local tax laws, the total selling price of an item may include shipping, handling charges, and discounts.
All sales tax calculations are subject to revision and are recalculated on the day your order is shipped. If your order has more than one shipping address, sales tax will be applied to the individual items in your order based upon the specific ship-to destinations.
No sales tax is collected on the purchase of Gift Cards. However, purchases paid for with Gift Cards are subject to sales tax in accordance with applicable laws.
How can I pay for my order?
For your convenience, we accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express credit and debit cards.
When will I be charged for my order?
When your order is placed, the payment amount of your order is authorized and held by your financial institution. In the case of a debit card, the funds may be held by your bank until we send a request to charge your card. We will not charge your card until your order ships. All authorization holds will expire in accordance with the terms of your bank or financial institution.
I am a non-profit organization or government agency. How do I order without being taxed?
Please download and complete our tax exemption form in its entirety and email it back to us. Our Customer Engagement team will then contact you to place your order.
How accurate are the colors shown for each product?
We make every effort to display as accurately as possible the colors of our products. However, we can't guarantee that your computer monitor's display of any color will be completely accurate. If you're in doubt, please order a fabric sample.
Can I order a fabric swatch before making my upholstery selection for an item?
Free swatches are available for most products and can be requested online or by calling 888 798 0202. Be ready to tell us which fabric swatches you would like to see, along with your name and mailing address, and we'll get that swatch right out to you.

Jarvis Assembly and Troubleshooting:
My Jarvis Desk is stuck. How do I get help?
Most issues with adjusting your desk can be resolved by performing a reset. Please follow these instructions to reset your desk.
Where are my Jarvis Frame Ends and Center Rails?
- The Frame Ends (Part B in the Assembly Instructions) are boxed together with the Center Rails in Jarvis Frame Box 2 and may appear to be one solid piece. If you are indeed missing one of the highlighted pieces, please contact us for a replacement.
- If you can't get the Frame Ends apart, try loosening the pre-installed set screws using the 3mm hex key included with your hardware kit.
- Once they are sufficiently loosened, the Frame Ends will slide off the Center Rails with ease.
- To view the location of the set screws on the Frame Ends, refer to Step 7 in the Jarvis Assembly Instructions.
My machine screws won’t thread into the metal inserts?
- The metal insert(s) in your desktop or shelf top may be too deeply recessed.
- If an insert isn't flush with the surface, the screw won’t engage and will instead appear to ‘spin’ around without attaching.
- To fix this, take a hex key (6mm for Bamboo and 7mm for Laminate) and “back out” the metal insert using a counter-clockwise motion until it’s flush with the surface.
- Repeat with other inserts as necessary. Once they are all level, you should be able to attach the top without issue.
